Birth control options have changed a LOT since Joanna and Daphnie were in health class. Are you using the choice that’s best for you, or just the one that was handed to you by your college health center worker 10 years ago? We cover the most popular types of birth control, how effective they are in the real world (not just when used perfectly) and their benefits and risks.

#165 Pregnancy: Second Trimester

We’re continuing our Pregnancy Series with the Second Trimester! The middle third of pregnancy gets called The Golden Trimester, but is it also kind of boring? Daphnie and Joanna cover what’s going on in terms of symptoms, what changes might be necessary at the gym, and what to do if a growing pregnant body brings up body image issues.
